IMO using science to debunk the unexplained is somewhat counterproductive, someone mentioned they struggle with concepts that aren't provable. I struggle with the cult of quantum mechanics and its reliance upon virtual particles?

Is a virtual particle any different to a ghost?
I'd opine that science debunked flat earth (for most people) and debunked that heaven is "up there" - I can't see what is counterproductive about that - unless I miss your meaning?

I'm not up to speed with virtual particles but in any event I don't have the qualifications to make a judgement.

I can guess but that's as good as it gets.

I guess that they are different
